Starting With a Single Street, an Effort to Make an Entire Borough Safer

Over the summer, Cohen applied for Make Brooklyn Safer to be a demonstration project of Shareabouts, a mapping tool of OpenPlans (the parent organization of Streetsblog). An earlier version of the Shareabouts software was used to solicit suggestions for bike-share station locations in New York. “We wanted to showcase the tool,” said Naama Lissar of OpenPlans. “It’s not just for bike-share.” via Streetsblog 10/12/12
